I can’t imagine that your orthodontics will tell you how to floss. Can you imagine a voice coming from inside your mouth, giving you instructions? But your orthodontist will tell you how.
yup. but if they don’t its really easy but soooo time consuming. ill tell you now.
you take the floss and you put it through the wire. then floss between the two teeth. take the floss out and move on. then put the floss through the wire and between the next two teeth. and so on and so on. its really time consuming at first.
my orthodontist gave me these tools to help me. if they dont show you how to floss, ask so you can see how its done and they will show you on a little sculpture thing, even though you could probably figure it out yourself.
yes, they give you a little thing. And you put the floss through the hole and the the stick through the wire and then pull off the green thing and floss. But it takes a long time cause you have to do it for every tooth so i just use a water pick instead, its alot faster and easier.
It looks like thishttp://z.about.com/d/dentistry/1/0/B/6/t…
They will explain it, but it’s fairly simple once you figure it out. You just have to lace the floss underneath the wire in between each set of brackets. It takes a lot of time but it’s worth it – flossing is important!
Yeah, but it’s easy enough that they don’t have to. You get a special kind of floss, called Superfloss, that is easy to use.
If they don’t tell you, you can always ask.
yeah they should
mine did
its really easy though
if he he/she doesnt show you..watch some of these videos and they will help you http://www.youtube.com/results?search_qu…

it’s nearly impossible to floss when u have braces… but there’s this little spiky thingy that cleans the gaps inbetween the braces and wire.
